[Q] Micro USB port not working - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello,
mi micro USB is not working propperly right now, for some reason it doesn´t charges correctly, it seems a little... "loose"... im currentl running CM 9 2012/05/26
and when it plugg it in the computer and manage it to start charging, it wont allow me to acces it as a mass storage device, in fact the computer wouldn´t recognize it at all!, any help!?

try another cable, or connecting it to other port after rebooting (usb musnt be connected)
Swyped off my Amazing Defy using ICS

happened with me too, got its motherboard replaced

crap... I`m rooted... so no warranty...
maybe in some repair shop of cellphones the will be able to replace it?
but.. did yours charged at all?
bacause mine does charges when appropietly connected... its just that sometimes it wont nad it will not allow me to get to the mass storage...

If your phone just charge but can't access to masive storage, look in the device manager , if you have a MTP device, your micro ubs port is fine, just try to install some stock rom.

it´s just that some times it doesn´t charges and I need to slowly start trying to adjust the micro USB port so it can charge... that´s why I say that it seems to be a little loose...
As well it will only charge when plugged into my XboX 360 or the computer (and some other devices) but not when plugged into the Stock charger... :S

USB not working for flash
Hi everyone, I came with a similar issue.
The massive storage USB connection is not working for me, plus I can't flash a stock rom,
Currently I'm in MIUI for defy (and it's the only option I am able to install), I tried to wipe data cache to install cyanogenmod 7 from recovery but it's not working, it get stuck in the boot logo. I want to install cyanogenmod because it is fast than MIUI jelly bean.
My idea is to flash the device, but with the usb not working Im stuck,
any ideas to solve this? or should i go to have the usb repaired?

If after a boot in bootloader (power+vol-up) and connecting to PC via usb cable nothing appear onto PC display 3 possibilities exist.
1. Usb cable is broken.
2. Pc have no usb driver foryour device (but even in this case a error message appear)
3. Usb connector or circuitry fron Defy is broken.

Yes, is OK your method but is a little dangerous if you not cover the cleaned pins with some resin. More safe is to use a toothbrush soaked in isopropyl alcohol or 98% ethylalcohol to clean the soldered pins.

uable to get usb connection working

since around a week ago my phone has not been able to connect to the usb ,
it does still charge via usb cable from the pc but the cable is not detected for mass storage ,kies or usb debug .
i know drivers are ok on pc as my wifes phone still connects fine .
is there any way to test that the usb socket is broken internally
i am haing same prob here after flashing a rom
just backing phone up with clockwork mod then going to do a factory restore to see if it cures the problem ,dont think it will but i can but try . device doesnt even go into mtp ? mode .
even in clockwork recovery when the usb is mounted as mass storage it isnt detected
well tried that no success , cant send phone back as cant factory restore it as i cant connect to odin. by the way what rom are you running and what version of galaxy have you got 8gb or 16gb

Have you tried the debugging mode?
EDIT : Try installing the usb drivers from my signature.
ive tried debugging mode no different , i can even select - deselect usb debugging whist the usb cable is connected .
the usb drivers from your sig are for windows x64
my wifes galaxy s is detected by the computer fine ,same usb cable and port

Can't you get hold of a friend's usb cable?
hi i have multiple usb cables here 2 original samsung galaxy cables plus multiple other micro usb cables . non of which work with the phone . not to sound ignorant but dont you think i have tried the obvious things first ?
Try a wipe/reset
If that doesnt work, try an other rom .... Stock or non-darkyy
If that doesnt work, im afraid there is a hardware problem

ok tried different roms etc no luck must be hardware related going to open the phone tomorrow and check the usb socket . only really worried incase i need to use odin to recover after a bad flash , or incase the usb decides to die completely and i cant charge the phone

Hey Jona29 i had the same problem some time ago i solved it by changing usb port (preferably one direct to motherboard) while pc is off then start it while in download mode and flash with odin.
Good luck bud, i know how frustrating it is
UPDATE ! fixed the phone ,yes it was hardware not software at fault . dissasembled the phone and removed the board with the usb connector on .
heated the board around the connector with a pyro pen to reflow the solder
let it cooled and then reassembled the phone .
powered up phone and connected usb lead ,computer recognised phone and phone recognised usb connection
probably took me 30 mins to complete the task.
better than say a 4 week wait from samsung

Slick. I have taken my phone apart for USB problems as well, but I would be scared to try to reflow something on the PBC. The connections are so small.
I have had the USB issue as well but it always seemed to be the cooked ROM iI was using.

I had the same problem, after using DXJPA ... every time i connected the phone (even in boot mode) i received "USB device not recognized" ... I don't know what worked in the end, but i tried a lot of things: I bought a new cable (same problem), I used another computer (same problem), I tried on W7 x64, W7 x32, XP SP3 (same problem), uninstalled and reinstalled Kies, I uninstalled and reinstalled an older version of Kies, changed the phone form a computer to another, played a lot with USB ports ...
After 2-3 hours of pain, Odin saw the phone ... flash it to JPY and no USB problem anymore ...
Maybe this will help someone

[Q] HTC HD2 Won't charge or be recognized via USB

Hello,
I recently successfully installed Windows Phone 7 rom onto my HTC HD2. The phone was working fine and would charge the battery when connected to a dedicated charger on the wall plug as well when it was plugged into another computer. I recently attempted to plug the phone into the computer via USB only to find it wouldn't recognize it ,no prompts on the computer or the orange light on the phone. I turned off the phone, removed the battery for several minutes, I started the phone up again and it would boot into Windows Phone 7 normally without any errors but still it would not be recognized by the computer or allow itself to be charged by an external battery power. I had read somewhere that if I where to select Mass Storage option off the bootloader that it would charge the battery and create a partition on the computer. Huzzah! the computer recognized the partition, but the battery still wasn't charging. Going through multiple threads I have read that it might Magldr others say it's the windows phone 7 rom not being fully stable yet and messing with the battery settings, I don't know where to go from here, i'm hoping someone can help. Here are the direct steps that I took since I got the phone:
Phone: HTC HD2 T Mobile
1. Unlock the phone (successfully)
2. installed HSLP3
3. Flashed Radio leo 2.15.50.14
4. Installed/Flashed MAGLDR113
5. Using USB Flasher installed the LEO70_ROM
That's all no settings afterwards were messed with, and Windows phone 7 came up normally and worked perfectly.
Side note: I have tried multiple micro USB cords and different Socket Wall Chargers.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mr_Pickles
I've yet to find out why it does this, or a step by step guide to fix it, however it is fixable, it will charge battery if you boot to magldr mode, no light will come on but it does charge, mine done this before and came out of it seemingly by its self, or more likely by a combo of things I did, anyhow, charge it up in magldr first, also try using usbdview to list all your USB devices, delete them all, windows can get confused some times
well fancy that, just happened to me again there, ok, so was at work, and my phone wouldnt take a charge via the socket or USB port on a working PC, like i said before it does charge via magldr
anyhow, just got home and plugged it in to my PC that i know it syncs with and all was fine.
So for you i'd definitely suggest deleteing your USB devices to make sure there is no conflicts, charge up your phone via a wall charger in magldr, then get it working with your PC, perhaps then you will get it working,
Thanks, it still isn't charging when it's on MAGLDR, i'm starting to think the battery might be dead. Either way I've ordered an external battery charger and an extra battery, hopefully that solves my issue. Although it still perplexes me why when attempted to connect to a computer it doesn't recognize it.
Unfortunately at this point the battery is completely drain so I can't do anything until the charger and the extra battery comes, but until then i'll keep digging for the answer.
Cheers,
Mr_Pickles

ah yes that is a problem, youve got the charger coming so its a bit late now but that happened to me once, if its just a bit too dead to get you to magldr to charge then i found if you pop it out, wrap it in a cloth and warm it up, do not place it directly on a heat source, by warming it up a bit it helps give it a wee nudge with its chemical reactions inside, potentially enough to get in to magldr.
there is no way of knowing if its charging via magldr other than it not turning off. but with an external on the way you will be fine.
as for it having issues
im guessing its because the battery controller on the HD2 isnt the same as the controller from where the ROM was pulled, meaning whilst its compatible, its not ideal, the not connecting thing could be a symptom of this, im just guessing here but if lets say the battery controler forgets what its doing could that knock out the who USB connection, the USB ports on the computer will have com ports connected whilst the charger will only have the power ports connected, perhaps a combo of all of these things is the reason
but what id do is get it charged first, use the program USBDVIEW (google it) and remove all USB devices associated with a connection to a HUB reboot and connect the HD2 (fully charged) to a different port than usual. it should install drivers and away you go!
Ok! So i got the charger and did all the steps below but still nothing, the computer won't recognize the phone through USB unless I go to Mass Storage option off of MAGLDR. Any thoughts?
The Windows 7 OS runs just fine. It's the connection to the computer/charger through USB that is the problem. Even when loading the boot loader (multi color screen) and then connecting the USB it won't recognize it, the bottom stays on "Serial".
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you,
Mr_Pickles
righty, this could be a challenge,
so usb storage mode IS detected when you plug it in with magldr
therefore we can rule out hardware issues
So physically it will connect, that leaves several different possible issues
first things first, you didnt mess about with USB tethering did you? i really hope you didnt and if you did you better start praying your phone is still unlocked and will allow unsigned apps, and that you still have the USB tethering app installed!
next, WP7 software issue, something is buggered stopping it for connecting,
unlikely if you cant connect via the SPL
Desktop Driver issue.
if there is any USB conflict on your PC it can create many problems for you did you try uninstalling all USB devices using USBDVIEW in admin mode, then try plugging it in again?
ok some other questions, does MAGLDR allow you to go to and use USB flasher mode, as if you where updating you WP7 ROM? does your PC connect and install a device driver when you plug it in? (make sure you deleted all USB devices before hand)
lastly, do you have access to another computer that has NOT had this phone plugged in to?, purely to see if it will get detected in SLP mode or ideally in WP7 itsself? this would obviously rule out your whole PC and would help pinpoint the issue!
Hi Dazza,
Here are the answers to your questions:
Q: first things first, you didnt mess about with USB tethering did you? i really hope you didnt and if you did you better start praying your phone is still unlocked and will allow unsigned apps, and that you still have the USB tethering app installed!
A: I did not mess with the USB tethering, my phone is still unlocked.
Q: Desktop Driver issue.
if there is any USB conflict on your PC it can create many problems for you did you try uninstalling all USB devices using USBDVIEW in admin mode, then try plugging it in again?
A: Yes I did, it still did not connect to the device, not allowing to view it as a storage device or charge the phone. The phone also does not recognize that it has been plugged in to the computer.
Q: ok some other questions, does MAGLDR allow you to go to and use USB flasher mode, as if you where updating you WP7 ROM? does your PC connect and install a device driver when you plug it in? (make sure you deleted all USB devices before hand)
A: Yes it does, it installs the drives and the phone shows the connection has been made through USB.
Q: lastly, do you have access to another computer that has NOT had this phone plugged in to?, purely to see if it will get detected in SLP mode or ideally in WP7 itsself? this would obviously rule out your whole PC and would help pinpoint the issue!
A: Yes I have. I tried 3 different computers and none of them recognize the phone.
Side notes:
- I have flashed an Android ROM to see if that would fix the error so I can switch back to WIN 7, but even with the android ROM the computer still does not recognize the phone being plugged in, nor does the phone recognize it has been plugged into the computer.
- When I have gone to the bootloader (multi color screen) in my attempts to bring back the phone to it's orginal state, it still does recognize the phone and won't let me install the base OS and radios for the phone.
I hope this info helps, man i'm really starting to regret getting this phone.
Thanks,
Mr_Pickles
ok, think we need to start again, its sounding all a bit dodgy, MAGLDR is working but the bootloader and WP7 itsself isnt....
you tried reflashing android to no effect
the only common denominator is the SPL/HSPL and the Radio
However because bootloader isnt working in USB mode you cant flash....
SO, next attempt is.....
Format a small SD card, format it as FAT32 or if that fails try FAT16 (512MB card) this is the tricky bit because some cards will not work.
Downloaded the original ROM for your device, usually a .exe file
Open the exe with a zip/rar program,
Extracted RUU_signed.nhb,
Move ruu-signed.nbh to your sd card,
Rename ruu_signed.nbh to leoimg.nbh
Then power phone off,
pop your small SD card with leoimg on in your HD2
Press and hold volume down, tap power but contiue to hold vol down.
The phone should boot into bootloader mode, and it "should" automatically discover there is a leoimg.nbh file on your sd card and ask you to flash.
If it is the wrong image, you should get a failed install message, but if you phone does nothing at all then either the sd card is faulty or the sd card reader is faulty (unlikely if WP7 was using it), or the nbh file is corrupt.
Faulty SD cards could be format issues, ideally you would format the card in the device itsself but you dont have that option unless android will let you do it, which is always an option!
Righty, hopefully that will reset your device SPL radio and all to the original state, if it works and you can get 6.5 working again see how you get it, its a hunch but i reckeon the SPL got buggered up, i cant see any other logical reason for it not to work, think of the SPL as a BIOS on your PC, if you turn USB off in your BIOS you dont have usb working in the OS.
Just to add to the topic here. If you can still transfer data but not charge or receive power via USB does not mean it is not a hardware issue. It just means the pins for data transfer in the USB port are working. A standard USB port has 5 pins in it (this includes micro and mini USB ports) only 2 of the pins are for power transfer the other 3 are for data transfer.
Also if you do not have ActiveSync or WMDC installed on the computer you connect to via USB while in bootloader you will not get the HTC USB sync (USB in white bar of bootloader) connection because these programs have the USB drivers for the HTC USB sync connection, they are not preloaded on the HD2. Therefore the do not auto install when you plug your USB cable in and are in bootloader. I learned this thechard way.
The OP had posted in the HD2 General forum too and I had advised them to try to use a multi meter to test the battery pins while the charger is plugged into the HD2 to comfirm voltage is getting to the battery. I also advised them to try and flash back to a Windows Mobile ROM to see if charging was possible. Both of these things would rule out a hardware issue.
MAGLDR still has this charging bug, it will let you charge while in USB Mass Sty bit it is not charging the battery correctly and this why, quoted straight from the first post inthe MAGLDR thread.
Battery controller inside LEO needs runtime control during charge, it implemented in OS.,
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The runtime control means that MAGLDR can not control the rate at which the battery is charged which is not good for 2 reasons. One too little (too slow) of a charge rate or too much (too fast) of a charge rate is detramental to your battery life and battery chargeablity. The secound is to much voltage going to the battery can cause the Li-Ion battery in the HD2 to explode. Now reason number 2 is a very unlikely senerio as all common USB type wall chargers only put out 5.0v to 5.1v and that is safe for Li-Ion batteries, but there is still the risk. But as the quote says the "run time control" is implamented by the OS so when you charge with your HD2 booted into the OS it is safe and not harmful to your battery.
I hope the OP gets their charging issue worked out and I hope it is not a hardware issue.
indeed, the power pins as you pointed out could be the issue, im trying not to complicate things at the moment because even if it was, it should still commence coms to the computer, it does connect via magldr so we can assume that firstly the cable is ok on the data lines, secondly the PC is able to detect the device meaning the device itsself is working
We can also assume that if all USB devices have been removed and no ActiveSync or WMDC is installed then Windows would still detect new hardware but will fail to install it, if the drivers were present and it connected we'd have fixed half the problem!
physically it can connect (magldr proven) but something is prohibiting it in bootloader and the OS, the PC isnt detecting it at all. I dont understand why magldr works and bootloader doesnt unless magldr is able to run its own form of bios, i dont know how it works so i couldnt be sure, so im running with a hunch that the HSPL/SPL is buggered as it wont connect to the pc in bootloader.... if we can flash via SD it will help rule that out.
aye the charger thing on magldr is concerning, but it will be ok to give it a short amount of juice to get to windows, overcharging is the issue, could potentially blow up but its unlikely, the plug charger should have a built in IC to knock it down to a trickle charge when it detects its reversing the polarity....should! lol
Thanks everyone, i'm planning on trying this out tonight when I get home and using the SD to bring it back to stock. Hopefully this solves the problem otherwise I'm thinking that T-Macgnolia is correct and one of the Pins in the USB is broken and would need to be fixed.
I really do appreciate all the effort you guys have given in your response.

its possible that the bootloader or the OS needs the power to be connected in order to function, you did say that you have tried different USB ports and a number of cables, the only other posibility would be that the pin on the phone its self is broken, thats going to be difficult to test.
do the SD thing first, if that doesnt work boot to android, note the battery level, get it to around 50%, then turn off the phone and boot to MAGLDR, you do not need to have it in USB storage mode or anyother mode, just leave it plugged in at the MAGLDR menu.
now the USB port on a PC will provide no more than 500mAh, so if you had 50% charge that would be about 600mAh in the battery, leave the phone plugged in to your PC in MAGLDR menu for an hour, that should give it no more than 1100mAh of juice, (it will actually be less than that as your screen will still be sucking juice)
if you use the 1A wall charger then only charge it for 30min, just to be on the safe side. (if you can i would recomend this one as it rules out any issues with data pins) and if its not working it wont completely drain your battery sitting there with the screen on
anyhow, boot back in to android and see what the battery level is indicating, if its gone up you know its charging, if its gone down you know it isnt, which may indicate a broken phone.
Good luck and keep us posted!
Success! Loading the stock ROM through the SD and finally my computer recognizes the phone! Thank you so much everyone for your help, I can't tell you how much I appreciate it.

no probs mate, thats why XDA dev is here!
i think its almost certain its a SPL issue, possibly got corrupted somehow, least you know its not hardware, i know this sounds a bit much after all you just went through but dont give up on WP7
Hi Guys,
I had exactly the same problem as Mr_Pickles.
I had tried reflashing the stock rom using the SD card method.
Everything installed normally, but after the flashing the HTC logo appears followed by the Radio version and other info shown in the bottom of the screen in red text.
Then the mobile reboots and keeps doing the same thing again and again.
Could someone help me on this please?

HSPL 2.0 installed, Stock rom installed via sd card method, still the same problem.
The point is that I read somewhere to just keep on flashing wp7, which works fine until operating XBmod-Yuki Rom Build 7004:
- While the wp7 works fine, the phone can't be recognized by any PC via USB, so i can't update the build via update cab sender
- But: The phone is detectable and chargable in bootloader mode, so now hardware issue?
I would appreciate any help.
Thanks in advance!
Hello,
I have had this problem in the past and it stumped me for a bit of time until I looked very carefully at how I was resetting the device. If you are not careful and with flashing etc you will be ripping the battery out all the time.
Look at the device with the battery out and you will see those 3 little pins. They need to be in a line for the battery to make decent contact with it. Over time if you are constantly taking out your battery it will bend them... you can just use your finger to straighten them.
That should do it. It got to a point I always take out my battery carefully now and make sure these pins are aligned before putting it back in.
okay, this is my time to post here.

1. I did install your latest rom
2. after some time it stopped charging at all
3. the problem is the phone got unable to charge under sd android as well.
4. at the end of story battery got dead - can't load magldr.
5. managed to direct power on it via red/black cables of usb to +/-

[Q] USB Port Charges but no sync/detection by PC.

hi guys, just to say that i read and have been reading for almost 2 weeks now on everything i could find and seems no one has been able to fix.
Some threads go on for 4 pages and then it turns out to be the cable etc which i found fustrating as surely should of have checked cable first before posting.
Anyhow, my usb stopped working randomly, it charges fine but doesnt connect to computer what so ever, as if i never plug it in. If i do plug in a OTG cable to the phone it says usb connected and then disappears.
What i've done so far after countless hours of reading.
- Replaced USB connector with new part
- Reflashed a stock rom with mobile Odin pro
- Flashed PURE Google Rom 4.3 pre rooted with TWRP,
- installed CWM Phillz touch revocovery over TWRP
- Tried phone on 3 different computers all with kies and drivers installed, no luck.
- Tried many different cables
- Tried other samsung phones with those cables on all pc's work fine.
- Updated kernel via odin
- Tried to boot without micro SD card inserted etc.
Is there anything else that i missed? Anything else you could suggest? maybe i put the wrong rom on? possibly a PIT error?
bear in mind phones warranty is VOID untill i can get the USB working again. or even maybe because i replaced the usb connector my self if they can tell i opened the phone then also void.

Thanks for the reply and sorry for the super late reply as I was doing donkey hours at work due to colleagues not turning up.
Eitherway, I tried that solution for me and that was also a no go. Mount unsuccessful for the error iirc.
Would it help to say that i used to connect my external hdd to the phone previously and used to do so with a OTG cable and when the phone didn't read my hdds because they were ntfs i used a program called stickmount pro and others, possibly could it be that those programs caused an error?
Also i have come to realize that my memory card has now been corrupted and I can't read some of the data on it while in the phone or while using an external card reader.
Could this possibly be anything to do with the PIT? As that's the only thing I think I havnt been able to do?

Unbrick S4 without USB

Hello,, I have a galaxy s4 running on Omega rom,, and my usb porn doesnt work,
I did a factory reset to find that ALL the apps crash on startup
If the usb porn was working I would have just flashed the stock firmware,, but any operation that needs USB is impossible
Can you please help me? Isnt there a solution?
** It's USB port , not USB porn **
What exactly do you mean by that?
1) Do you have USB cable connected to PC and your PC does not detect it?It could be a cable problem.Have you try a different one?
2) It could also be a driver problem.Do you have installed the correct drivers so your PC can detect your phone right?
Also if you had a custom rom flashed to your phone you can make it work again just by flashing it back using a custom recovery.Format system , data , boot and cache partitions and make a clean install of your rom.If you have not a custom recovery I am afraid you have to flash your phone through USB.
First of all, I would like to thank you for your help
Apologies for that mistake I'm still getting used to my new keyboard..
The USB port doesn't work meaning it neither charges nor connects to pc, because when it was charging, I smelled some plastic burning, could be a short circuit
And I don't have the Zip of the rom anymore on the phone, could it be possible to put an SD card and flash another one that is guarenteed to work?
And yes I have custom recovery

Yes just put a rom on your sd card and flash it.

Yes.If you have access to recovery you can just connect you sdcard to PC with an adapter and put the zip of your rom inside.Then put it but to your phone and flash it back.
You could also try to mount your sdcard to PC from your custom recovery and you put the zip of your choice inside.

Heeelp Please!!

I installed this rom https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138 on the same ROM but rooted now my phone does not support turbo charging and if I plug my phone to the pc is not displayed, before that clean the micro usb port of my phone, I do not know if it damaged it or does not support turbo charge for having flashed wrong.
Could you tell me what the problem is? if it is wrong flashed as I flash it back if I can not connect it to the pc? or is it the micro usb port and do I have to change it?

No rom affects turbo charging in any way. Check the temperature of your phone and the connection/cable. Reflashing may be an option to.
@megasjuan turbo charging is hardware feature and has nothing effect even of wrong flash (many one did wrong flashing and lost one imei of slot-2 and with model number, in your case it seems to be fine, right? )
You said you cleaned usb port, it may be damaged that while, or may be not.
Turn your phone off and plug it to charging, then see what that charging screen says.
For computer connection, try updating driver / remove and install again / change usb cable or different usb slot of computer.
Then you can conclude what's wrong.
